| Background Information | The Na+/K+/Cl- Cotransporter isoform 1 (NKCC1) is involved in the transport of sodium, potassium, and chloride ions across membranes. NKCC1 mediates sodium and chloride reabsorption and plays an important role in cell volume regulation. NKCC1 is also involved in the control of normal cell proliferation, while its overexpression results in apparent cell transformation, in a manner similar to some protooncogenes (Panet, 1999). NKCC1 is inhibited by bumetanide and is also referred to as the bumetanide-sensitive sodium-(potassium)-chloride cotransporter 1. Inhibition of NKCC1 activity by bumetanide decreases the high-[K+]o-mediated uptake of Cl , blocks astrocyte swelling, and leads to cell shrinkage under isotonic conditions in cells such as retinal pigment epithelia, ventricular myocytes, and vascular endothelial cells (Russell, 2000; Su, 2002). NKCC1 could contribute to an overload of intracellular Na+, K+, and Cl- and cell swelling in conditions such as cerebral ischemia (Yan, 2001). NKCC1 is expressed in multiple tissues with the amount of mRNA expression varying as much as thirty-fold. It is highly expressed in neurons and astrocytes through-out the brain and has been implicated in ischemic necrotic cell death. |

|
| Entrez Gene Summary | By moving chloride into epithelial cells, the Na-K-Cl cotransporter SLC12A2 aids transcellular movement of chloride across both secretory and absorptive epithelia (Payne et al., 1995 [PubMed 7629105]). See also SLC12A1 (MIM 600839) and SLC12A3 (MIM 600968).[supplied by OMIM] |
